Ozempic / Semaglutide restricted; documentation or permits may apply
Details
Ozempic / Semaglutide restricted; documentation or permits may apply. Quantity guidance for Thailand: Up to 30-day personal supply; Thai FDA requires declaration at customs for prescription injectables. Documentation: Original prescription from licensed physician; Medication in original pharmacy-labelled packaging; Customs declaration at Red Channel for injectable medications. Enforcement in Thailand carries fines from THB 5,000 to THB 500,000 under Customs Act B.E. 2560 (2017) s.202, s.242 (ordinary personal cases are handled as civil infringements). Restricted status means compliant carriage is achievable with the right paperwork and quantities; the practical risks are seizure, duty, and delay rather than criminal liability for a good-faith traveller. Arrival checks are carried out by Thai Customs Department; when in doubt use the declare (red) channel — declared goods at worst attract duty or surrender, while undeclared goods attract penalties. Leaving Thailand with ozempic / semaglutide is a separate question: allowed — Ozempic (semaglutide) may be exported from Thailand for personal use with prescription documentation; cold-chain and injection-pen rules apply.
